Make it stop! They are having burping and fake farting contests.
First grade fart-a-thon…I mean sleep over party for my son.
These boys are nuts! What was I thinking inviting them over?!?!
HEEELP!!!
How 'bout some posts about sleep over pranks and memories?
If you want it to stop there’s this product on the market called duct tape… 
Or if things seem really hopeless, elephant tranquilizer is always a plus to have around the house.
Neither does it help that my old near blind dog is showing a special fondness for one of the boy’s sleeping bags.
I’ll try the duct tape if my idle threats don’t work first.
You’re gonna idle on top of them? 
Send me over to do it, I can’t idle yet, I’ll just fall on 'em.
well the best way to calm down some kids is to give them a couple litres of coffe icecream with some red bull, it will make them go crazy go nuts for a while but then they’ll have a caffine crash, like theres now tommorrow. ha ha ha ha ha yeah it’ll work like a charm, if you survive the caffine high;)
shouldn’t you be trying to control them instead of posting on here?
Give them an educational lecture on the finer qualities of soil. They’ll be asleep before you’re done.
Flashlight tag is a good one to get them outside and use up energy.
but your but on someones face then slap them in the face… film it too it’s hilarious…
Remember that this should result in X number of return invites! you might get a few quiet nights in out of this while bear goes and terrorises some other kids parent.

Wow, did the boys have a great time. No injuries or tears. Someone stepped on a lego in the dark and let out a yelp but that was it. Lots of laughs until they finally dozed off around 11.
I think I exerted about the right degree of control for them to be silly and safe at the same time.
They were up early and I made them muffins and apples. the chubby kid ate only the pats of butter on his plate and asked for more butter please. eew.
I like the idea of lecturing them about soil. I played Prokofiev’s (spelling?)Peter and the wolf for them which bored them for a while.
burping and fake farting contests? that sounds like one punk rock sleepover! give your kid a high five for me.
and i dont really have much sleepover memories. jsut stayin up and kickin playin super smash brotehrs and stuff. good times

That is DISGUSTING
Glad it all went off without a hitch. I would only have been worried if the sleepover had contained no bodily function contests.
An abnormal boys’ sleepover would consist of them discussing homework, tidying up after eating and reading a little to themselves before getting their heads down at around 8.30pm. Now that would freak me.
The only time a sleepover has been a hassle chez s7ev0 is when we had the boys sleeping in the garden in a tent. Noise in a tent until late in the night travels to the neighbours…
Show them 2001: A space odyssey, its probably the best sleeping aid in the history of mankind. next to a rubber mallot of course. don’t get my wrong its a great movie but only if you can somehow stay up to finish it.
Hey!, I can remember my parents paying that for us when we were kids.
I seem to recall it came with the whole description of which instruments were which animals. I still have an animated movie of it in my head and whenever I hear it, the movie stars up again.
One day, when I’m big, I will not only finish it in one sitting but I’ll ‘get it’ as well.

No you won’t. I saw it years and years ago on a 3D wrap around semi circular total immersion screen, sitting in the front row. I came out with some variation of dazed, stunned, confused, and was staggering slightly, not really able to walk properly. I still don’t really understand it, and suspect Arthur C. C. didn’t either.
Yes I suppose though it is slow compared to today’s action compulsory at every instant movies. In that respect 2001 suffered from too much realism maybe, but any real life long space trip is going to bore even the on board computers to death.
Too true.
For entertainment they may want to read the regular arguments that ensue whenever someone mentions HAL by name.
I wonder wheres harpers children are edible !!???
